SA 26-1 (5 Ovs) vs Ind 358-5 | SCORECARD

Harshit Rana continues. Markram taps a single to point. De Kock is beaten on the next ball -- he misses the flick, and the ball rolls off his thigh pad towards fine leg; leg-bye called. No edge to the keeper. Markram follows up with a crisp punch to cover for another single. A dot ball finishes the over.

Just 3 runs from it. South Africa 25/0 after 4 overs.

Arshdeep Singh continues. Markram looks a bit uncomfortable, defending three deliveries before nudging one to point for a single.

On the next ball, he skies one in the air -- taken comfortably by Washington Sundar. De Kock tries a flick but edges it high off the leading edge and departs for 8 off 11 balls.

Temba Bavuma walks in as the new batter. He defends the last off the over.
